Muskie Discussion Forums
| Random quote: A couple of young fellers were fishing at their special pond off the beaten track when out of the bushes jumped the Game Warden. Immediately, one of the boys threw his rod down and started running through the woods like a bat out of hell, and hot on his heels came the Game Warden. - (Added by: FISHFINDER101) |

Posts: 1405 Location: Detroit River | Most videos online about tying marabou & deer hair are videos about tying jigs, which is the same concept as tying bucktails. I am by no means an expert on tying marabou but have been tying deer hair for bucktails for a few years. This past spring I tied my first marabou bucktails for the early part of the season. I tie mine to weighted coils that you can buy at Lure Parts Online or Moore's. I tie around 4 or 5 pieces of marabou to the coil at a time but before I tie I cut part of the tops off. First I tie a few hackle feathers on or flashabou then I tie 4 layers of marabou onto a 2 1/2" weighted coil. Here's the first 2 that I tied this past spring. I boated plenty of bass & pike & a couple of mid 30 muskies with them during the first month of the season.
